"I absolutely loved this class! Carol Feller explained the process very well through the videos, and gave excellent techniques that may be applied to other sweaters, such as double loop, grafting, blocking, etc. I have spent several months working on the sweater, but I have completed it and love it. Along the way I had questions which I asked of Carol, and she responded very quickly and gave excellent personal help. I highly recommend this class to anyone who is interested in learning cables." - Cotton LadySouth Carolina

Explanation of reason for alternate cable cast on very clear. Video demo is just long enough for the demonstration of the cast on.

Carol teaches a terrific class. As others have said here, her lessons are not only applicable to this sweater, but to all kinds of sweater knitting/design/construction. Her lessons are incredibly detailed, as are the class materials. She takes her time going through all of the necessary techniques and stitches, while also simultaneously teaching sweater construction, pattern reading, chart reading, and cable reading. Incredible. I could not have asked her to do anything more in this tutorial. ...

I could not have asked her to do anything more in this tutorial. Well worth the cost! And, if you go through Carol's website, you can always get a discount on the class. She is running a KAL for 2015 and I am quickly becoming a huge fan of her patterns, her instruction, and her easy-going personality. Thanks for an excellent experience!

This is a wonderfully instructive class. I had never heard of this teacher before, but since taking her free mini-class on short rows, I signed up for her other two classes Celtic Cables and Sweater Surgery. I can't wait to get back to Carol's classes!
